TV Licence Surcharge Explained | Leeds News
Description
TV Licence prices in the UK are rising April 1, 2026, but here’s the twist: if you pay quarterly via direct debit, you’ll fork out an extra £5 a year—£1.25 per quarter—because you’re essentially paying in arrears. Parliament set this fee, and it’s clearly outlined when you choose the quarterly option. Want to avoid it? Switch to monthly direct debit (starts at £30/month, then drops to £15) or pay the full £180 upfront annually. Know your payment plan to keep your viewing costs predictable.
